A friend is earning $190K TC in FP&A at 8 YOE and after a few years of trying to break into VC was just offered an Associate role at a T2/3 fund on Sandhill for $145K TC - no negotiation.

Should he accept it considering it’s a first step?

Guys...pls let me know if there is any opening for experienced Mechanical engineers in production field...

Looking for Senior level designers + ACD level creatives for an agency based in Detroit. Give me a should if you’re looking!

How are things at Zenith these days? Recruiters have been reaching out to me frequently regarding roles there - that can either be a good or a very bad sign.

Hi all , looking for thoughts on best company for sfcc. Is company like Deloitte better or a web agency ?

Hi all,

I recently heard about Stoa School for the working people, who wants to do MBA. Would anyone provide any insight if stoa school is worth to consider for MBA for working professional?

Hoping for a bump at next review. Should I mention it now? Will either kick epic ass or fail massively in the next few months.

Is MBB hiring right now ?

I have a rogue 1st year analyst who is promising things to a client he has no business promising. He shouldn't even be talking to the client. This kid isn't gonna last long.

Nothing like working until 2am doing menial tasks for the client on your birthday

Does anyone know various third party agencies that do Nike specific recruiting? Been trying to break in and feels so tough without some kind of “in”

Is this group active ? Drop a comment.. lot of stuff happening in KPIT.

Are funds willing to negotiate offices? I’m planning to interview with US funds for a 2023 start but may need to move to London for personal reasons - is this something funds are open to?

Would love to get insight into the level of attrition that you see at PE firms.

How many new analysts/associates can I expect for a GE fund to hire each year? I understand each firm/office has varying needs, but I'm struggling to wrap my head around why anyone would even consider T2 consultants, even at the consulting-friendly shops.

Not enough MBB consultants interested in PE to fill all the ex-consultant spots? Personal goal is to build a fighting chance to exit into GE or MM PE

Accepted an offer that’s giving me carry in a VC fund that’s 2019 vintage. However, this associate role will only be for two years, and there was no detail on vesting schedules. How do I work the details out?

Tomorrow I have an interview with the partner of a fundraising and M&A boutique for tech startups, who’s also an active VC. Any tips? Although I’m currently at a B4, I have some corp dev experience at a tech unicorn. Thanks.

New associate coming in. Does anyone know if deal flow is slower before Christmas/New Years or after?

Anyone have a contrarian opinion on a trend / investment theme going on in the private investing world, particularly tech investing? Feels like everything is painted in the “huge growing market with tons of white space” lens.

I’m currently doing portfolio opps at a solid UMM shop, but exploring making a change (potentially to a bigger firm where there’s more career progression). I was recruited to my current role, and am wondering how others in portfolio opps are finding new opportunities. It seems like most of them recruit vs. post jobs. Any insights are appreciated!

How’s comp and culture at Altamont?

What kind of consulting did you all do and where if you exited to PE investing roles? Every single head hunter I’ve spoken to says these MM firms want banking experience

Interested in working in PE, but experiences align more with the Ops side (3 YOE in strategic value creation). Is there a significant difference in total comp potential between ops and investments roles? Not sure how to make a case to break into investments with minimal DD experience, so thinking about Ops recruitment (Associate). Would also be grateful to learn about potential strategies non-DD focused consultants have used to ultimately break into investment teams.

Looking for advice on tips and tricks for landing PE MBA internship, coming from consulting. What were the game changers for you?

Nyc family office associate comp expectations? They manage about $5B

During a 90 minute model test are you typically expected to build out the full pro forma B/S?

When’s a good time to shift to PE? 0+3 rn. Thinking of applying in 9ish months time

Is there any stigma to saying no to an offer without another in hand? I landed an off-cycle offer at a decent fund but after thinking through, want to take a shot at some of my other funds as well

I have a VC/GE interview coming up (phone screen) and personally don’t know much about the space , it’s just an area that has always seemed interesting.

Does anyone have Recommendations on how to get up to speed/good questions to ask during the phone screen?

I would assume the first call will be pretty standard to any other company, but just want to be prepared.

How is Oliver Wyman FS -right after undergrad- if you want to exit into PE ?

Was just reached out to by someone from Barton. They say they recruit people for day-by-day contract work for PE firms. Are there any other firms that do this?

Can anyone speak to the presence of impact investing across PE versus VC or HF?

For context, I’m going for my MBA next fall (targeting M7) and want to pivot into impact-focused finance but am struggling to understand which option is best. I’m going in with 3 years of tech consulting experience (data & analytics) in the financial services industry.
